Trivia:
Why did I make this mod?
Well I reinstalled DOWII Retribution because I saw [link] Yes someone else had made a Krieg skin swap for campaign before. However his damn download link doesn’t work!! Man that was a frustrating experience.
I had never made a mod before in this game, but I tried using two tools called SGA reader and SGA archiver. Thanks to these basic tools, I have been able to make this mod. I wanted to share this mod to those out there who might be interested. Although the game is 8 years old by now, it is still very fun!
Side effects:
The original Death Korps of Krieg DLC skin for multiplayer had a Krieg Grenadier model, however they didn’t use it for Stormtroopers model. I don’t get this decision, they had an awesome model laying around!
So I gave the Krieg Grenadier model to Stormtroopers, Guardsman Sergeants, Sergeant Merrick (The guy from the campaign).
Also you can change the colour of the models for multiplayer, this was not intended but there you go!
Limitations:
-I can’t reskin Ogryns, however it shouldn’t affect their aesthetics too much as the DLC just gave them gas masks.
-I don’t know how to reskin the Inquisitor, sorry for those who want to use her Krieg DLC model!
Conclusions:
-So far nothing seems out of place, however if you guys find something wrong with the mod. Please comment on the mod page and tell me! If anything happens like the download link not working or some models out of place, I will try to fix it.
